Over the weekend, President Trump’s Truth Social account promoted a video that has since gone viral. In it, a supporter pleads for a new law called the “Charlie Kirk Act.” Her pitch is blunt: punish “news corporations” and online creators for “lies” and “propaganda.” She urges Congress to impose fines so severe they would “damn near bankrupt” outlets that cross the line.
On Sunday, Senator Mike Lee (R-Utah.) announced on social media he would introduce the legislation “in the coming days.” He added,
I’ll be filing my previously drafted legislation to restore Smith-Mundt, and renaming it the Charlie Kirk Act. Domestic, political, government-funded propaganda must end now.
((( Trump ))) is counting on people not remembering that the act was originally enacted to prevent the US GOVERNMENT from broadcasting propaganda to the citizens of the country. This is how they will jail people for "anti-semitism."
